Well
here's something as a starter for the '66 intake courtesy of Ted
Austin who only knows the whereabouts of one other member of the '66
intake. Yours truly knows the whereabouts of two others (Neville
Snodgrass & Jeff Plumb) so if there are
any more of you out there who would like to get in touch with Ted or
Colin then send me an email or post some text on the notice board.

Jeff
sent this gem in recently

"Who remembers Scrumpy nights out, getting pissed on two pints, Weymouth
Pavilion, lets all Drink to the death of a Clown, Nights in White Satin, Whiter
Shade of Pale etc. What a fabulous time, Eddie Hapgood and Mrs Shagnasti's
wonderful morning tea's, honey and all. Cheese rolls full of pubes. Late
night trials of retribution, pyramids and full telephone boxes. Free telephone
calls courtesy of British Telecom, who remembers tap,tap,tap,ring,ring. Anybody
remember the confrontation with the Poole Hells Angels on the lawn of the
Hostel. Southern softies no bottle. Engineers blue in the showers and on the bog
seats. Can anybody remember the name of the little fat get who bossed us all
around at Winfrith. Should be dead by now thank god."

1966 was surely the best year of the lot.

Jeff Plumb

If
you're out there and have a photo then send it in, lets get '66 on properly
on the site.

"Hi - Ted
Austin here from the '66 intake. Had the odd non-BNFL job here and
there but in general I'm still here beavering away for BNFL. The
only other guy from my year I know for definite is still here, still my
best buddy after all these years, and that's Colin Dean.
I noticed the complete lack of anything at all for the 66 - 70 crew so
hope you can fix us up with a button with this complete list of the '66
intake copied from the original document."
